Biography

Bonfils was born in 1960 and started writing music at the age of eight. He experimented with electronic music on the earliest generation of synthesizers.

He studied musicology at the university of Aarhus, but dropped out after three years to concentrate on playing keyboards and writing songs for off-beat Danish new wave band, D.N.D. Bonfils left the group in 1989 and it disbanded a few months later.

Since then, Bonfils has played in and written for rock bands in various genres from new wave to glam rock to indie. He has produced music for theatre, films and computer games. He toured for a couple of years as part of the standup comedy duo Megabody and Bonfils for which he also wrote all music.

And everything I never didI remember anywayAnd everything I’ve yet to doI still recall like it was yesterday

Art

Written By: Bonfils

The line stayed with me,Spoken, it would seem,By the kind of voice you hearWaking from a dreamThese are the words That have been going through my mindA manifesto of a new and urgent kind

ArtIs tryingTo make senseOf it all

Like the cavemanPainting pictures of his preyOf how he caught itOr the one that got awayWhy the need to reproduceWhat’s already there?To investigate, to demonstrate and share?

ArtIs tryingTo make senseOf it all

Every Now and Then

Written By: Bonfils

No-one told you that thereWere no answers to theMany questions that theyJust keep asking you and

No-one ever thought ofChanging anything Because it’s always been theSame and you just Take your time

But still you feelEvery now and thenYou’ll never make itAnywayBut then againEvery now and thenYou feel you didThough you’re not certain what it means

I can still recall theDays I spent in silent Wonder at the things youTold me you could do and

We were young and we wereSo much brighter then but Now those days are overWe have no excuses left

The Airplane Song

Written By: Kim Bonfils

As our plane explodes in mid-airThe entire right side blown awayThe oxygen masks dangle before meBut the sky sure is blue todayYou grab my hand and ask me“Is this the end? Just like this?”I think for a second, then turn to youAnd say “I’m afraid it is”

And as the plane spins out of controlWe can regret all that we’ve ever doneBut who can say how to live your life?You never know how or when it is gone.I can the regret the mistakes that I madeIf I forget what I made them forRegret that I’ve wasted too much timeOr that I didn’t waste it more

We’re falling at maximum speed nowI’m sure it won’t be longBut still, to die by your sideSounds so much better in a songThe nearest exit may be behind youBut looking back is always toughEven if you are a frequent flyerYou still feel you haven’t flown enough

If I don’t wake from this dreamI’ll never wake up again

Old Enough to Know

Written By: Bonfils

You ask me if I loved herAnd I did - all those years agoBut is that now behind me?I’m afraid the answer’s no.

‘Cause I don’t believe that love is lost foreverI don’t think you can let the feelings goWe all pretend and I suppose it’s best for those involvedBut you and I are old enough to know

They say that love’s a blessingBut you know when it becomes a curseYou may still love anotherWhich I guess just makes it even worse

And I don’t believe that love is lost foreverI don’t think you can let the feelings goWe all pretend and I suppose it’s best for those involvedBut you and I are old enough to know

I cannot be your first loveBut I can hope to be your lastI’ll share you with your memoriesLike you share me with my past

‘Cause I don’t believe that love is lost foreverI don’t think you can let the feelings goWe all pretend and I suppose it’s best for those involvedBut you and I are old enough to know
